Meet the Hosts!

Curtis Earth

I grew up hooked on game shows. Chuck Barris was my idol and as an impressionable pre-teen in the late 70's, Gene Rayburn, Peter Marshall and Richard Dawson were my rockstars! In 1993 I decided not too wait anymore for Hollywood to come calling, and much like a child building his own lemonade stand, I built a podium and started my own game show. (more...)

Billy Warmth

Billy started playing at Curtis' Holiday Inn trivia show back in the early 90s as part of the formidable Out of the Vortex team. When Curtis moved to Florida, Billy was asked to host and has been going like gangbusters ever since. His wildly popular Celi's Clubhouse show in Millersville, PA, was soon joined by another show at the Barn Door.

Mike Horn

I was playing Curtis' trivia shows in Lancaster in the late '90s as part of the legendary Nothing But Babaganoosh team when he asked if I could help him re-design his website.(I guess having a one-page free Geocities site qualified me as an expert.) I later became his ghostwriter for an all-Simpsons trivia show, which I took over with co-host Chris McClure in 2002. That led to shows at Bube's Brewery in Mount Joy, the Lititz VFW and Cafe Chuckles in Lancaster, PA.

During the day I'm a book preservationist at F&M College. I design and maintain many other sites in addition to earthtrivia.com. I'm a cartoonist and graphic designer and also do decorative painting and interior murals. (You can see my work at hornographics.com). My latest endeavor is playing around with the Winter Radio Theater comedy troupe, based in Harrisburg.

And I occasionally sleep.

Rick Peterson

A native of St.Louis, Mo., I first moved to Orlando at the age of 14. It didn't take long for me to fall in love with Central Florida. There is always something new and exciting to experience and being a full-time trivia host is no exception! I am absolutely having the time of my life and hope that I can convey that to my guests each night. OK, let's see..., bio stuff: I'm single with two great teenagers that call me Dad for some mysterious reason. Career paths have included being a salesman, postman, taxi cab driver, scrap metal yard manager, flight deck crewman, bartender and restaurant manager. I'm now living my dream, so, if we meet, I have just one request: Please don't pinch.

Erika

I was born in Hollywood, Florida and have been moving all around the state since. After a brief period in Weston I headed to Ponte Vedra Beach followed by Gainesville and now find myself in Orlando. During the day I work as an Environmental Scientist at Groundwater and Environmental Services (GES) and by night I host trivia. I graduated from Rollins College and while going to school I was a frequent patron of Fiddlers Green. One day while playing Curtis Earth Trivia at Fiddlers, fellow trivia host Nicole came up and asked, "Want to host a trivia show with me?" The rest is history.

Nicole

A Florida girl born and raised! Originally from Clearwater Beach, I moved to Winter Park to go to Rollins College when I was 18. I was a frequent patron of Fiddler's Green which was how I became fortunate enough to cross paths with the wonderful Mr. Curtis Earth. We became fast friends and he gave a show to myself and Erika to co-host in Oveido, Florida the summer after we graduated. At present I am living in Melbourne, Fl with my dog Zorro and am a graduate student studying to get my doctorate in Clinical Psychology. I was able to start a show here in Melbourne at R.J. Gators and am currently looking for a second venue. I am so thankful for the opportunity to become a trivia host. It has brought me a lot of enjoyment, new friends, and terrific study breaks! Hope to see you at a show soon!

Justin Steadman

Justin Steadman is a nine year radio veteran. He got his start on Real Radio 104.1 in 1999. After working on several stations within the cluster, he returned to Real Radio's Shannon Burke Show, where he worked until November 2007.He went on to join Curtis Earth Entertainment in January 2008 and with his best friend friend Chris, does three shows a week!

Come on out and say hello!

Chris Cornell

Born and raised in Orlando and a graduate of UCF (go KNIGHTS!), I have lived in Seattle and Rhode Island, but some how always found my way back home to Florida. I met Curtis at his Cheers gig and realized that we had a mutual friend, Steadman. From there we hit it off and I jumped at the opportunity to host trivia. I have had several opportunities, from car salesman to AM disc jockey, and this is without a doubt my favorite. Trivia has brought me nothing but good times, new friends and lots of laughs. Hope to see you at a show soon, please bring a hot dish!
